There are specialised foods for algae eaters at most good pet shops.
Guppies do eat algae. However, if you only feed it fish feed, then it will not eat the algae because it is so used to the fish feed...
Most of the time you can just leave them in the tank. The other fish will most likely leave them alone. You can feed them wafers with algae in them. They will also eat whatever your other algae eaters eat. I hope this answer helps!
yes algae eaters do eat dead fish because as i type this my algae eater is feasting on a dead goldfish!
It depends on what you are calling an "algae eater." A pleco is considered a scaleless fish. A Siamese or Chinese algae eater does have scales.
plecostamus, Chinese algae eaters, there are a lot.
If you have an algae eater and no algae you can go to any pet shop and get algae waffers.
Yes they are good as a treat but Plecos are algae eaters. Specialised food is available for algae eaters at good pet/fish shops
you would want to feed it an algae or vegetable tablet that you can get from the fish store. feed the snails once a week and they should be good.
it depends on the fish. some fish like algae eaters eat algae tablets. But there is also pellets and fish flakes sold at stores like petco or walmart
You rehome the Algae Eaters. Chinese Algae Eaters, what you have, are hardy tropical fish that turn increasingly predatory as they age. They will not stop sucking of slime coat of Goldfish or any other fish who holds still long enough. They are also capable of taking out eyeballs or even eating smaller fish entirely who sit still too long.
Of course you have to feed them. (They are tropical fish so should not be in a cold water tank with goldfish anyway). Your suckerfish are algae eaters and need their own special diet that's available at pet shops.
Algae feed small fish which starts the food chain.
